In addition to death and taxes, inflation is another phenomenon that we can expect with near certainty over a period of time. The U.S. has actually gone through many brief periods of deflation , but in general, economic progress is accompanied by inflationary pressures. Inflation may occur when there is too much money in the system, which leads to an escalation in the price of goods. Of course, if a household's two primary sources of wealth creation – asset and income appreciation – rise at a rate equal to or greater than inflation, the negative effects of inflation are neutralized. Yet, as we've seen time and time again, that usually is not the case. The prime indicator of this effect is that, while minimum wages have increased, the overall price of goods has outpaced the average ...

An ET poll in February said that the rupee may weaken beyond Rs 70 to the US dollarNSE -2.94 % by the end of the year.

The dollar stayed near its 2018 peak today after US jobs and wages da...

This is important both in order to ensure that media are not themselves manipulated, but also so that they can explain these strategies to their audience. Some common approaches parties and candidates use during campaigns can be summarized as follows: Dictate the agenda. Usually competing political parties or candidates prefer to fight a campaign on familiar terrain. One party may debate an election on the issue of, say, management of the economy.
